Benefit to Fedora

This library will allow fedora users the ability to manage their storage arrays programmatically. To allocate/de-allocate/re-size/snapshot/map logical units to host initiators.

Scope

This is a new isolated library that only needs to complete its own functionality for completion.

How To Test

Automated library testing will be completed with the use of a simple storage array simulator plug-in. Complete tests for each of the included plug-ins will require vended hardware which may not be available for testing. Plug-ins that are not included with the project will require independent testing by plug-in author .

User Experience

Initial user experience will be limited to a basic scriptable command line interface and library to perform management tasks. In the future additional libraries and applications will benefit from the library which will greatly improve the users experience.
